cool pics guys. Well after finding some brazing rod that works, i got my chassis all brazed up with shock mounts and all. It's pretty rough, seeing how its my first chassis, but i know for sure what i need to concentrate on for the next one. My roommate started brazing his up and is almost done as well. So we will be up for business in no time. no pics yet : ) |

| GTG at Old Mission Dam
Looks like 1:30 pm for me and Don. Probably head west on the walking trail out of the parking lot. 200 yards or so down by the creek there is a cool little trail. I'll be there. listen for the whirrrr .... whirrrr of electric motors and incesent giggling from grown men. |

seems like you need to go down to Hobby People and pick up a TLT for $80.oo. Lock yourself in you room with some tools, food, stack of cd's, and later, emerge with an awsome crawler, and join in the fun. |

15N to Pomerado Rd. exit(only goes one way cause of bridge costruction). 1st light take a left on Highland Valley Rd then a right into the dirt lot. See you at the dam. Last edited by raul duke; 11-02-2006 at 12:44 PM. |
